Event tendon boots for horses Read more.
Tendon guards are particularly suitable for your horse's front legs. They protect the front legs from hind legs that could catch and hit the front legs. Gaiters therefore consist of a hard shell on the outside and an open front. The lining must be soft and as breathable as possible to prevent the legs from becoming too hot. BR offers a range of highly breathable tendon protectors to prevent overheating injuries.
When buying a pair of gaiters, it's particularly important to get the right size for a perfect fit. Your horse must be able to move well with the gaiters, and there must be no rubbing and/or pressure sores. You also need to make sure that you don't over-tighten the gaiters, as this will put too much pressure on the tendon.
Do you also need fetlock protectors? Then you can mix and match a set with BR tendon guards, or you can opt for a complete set.
